I have a MBA (my first apple since the Mac SE 20... ha!) and I have a Dell 2300 multimedia projector. I have the DVI-VGA adaptor, but I can't get a good picture to project. I've toyed with the display settings to see if I can get it to improve. The picture stays dark, or blurry, etc etc.
Is there a setting I'm missing, or could I maybe have a bad adaptor?
I want to find the "Eject" icon that replaces the trash when you drag a volume. Where it is located.

on the tv, (my older read projection) ,all i see is grey squiggly lines, not snow.. the picture is there but it is not converted properly. i cant see anything. i press command f1 and something usually happens and goes back to the grey shit.
i try it on my hd tv, and it just says /'no signal/', so i am assuming that the picture isnt getting converted properly. could it be my converter, or is it something in the output setting or the mini divi port? the converter i got was one from best buy- dynex, and it has a mini dvi male, and a female composite and s-video.
I have an external USB camera it is a Z-Star PC Camera. How do I get it working on my MBP 17"?
I need a moveable camera for some projects and need this working as soon as I can.
I also have Windows XP on VM Fusion and it does recognize it but I can't get it to work on there either.
you can now adjust the awesome bar behavior if you want to exclude history, or bookmark, or both.
and you can set up in more detail about what kind of private information you want firefox to remember.
when clear private data, you can select if you want to clear everything, or just the data from past hour, past 2 hours, or past 4 hours.
I am on the way to install Transmission on a Unibody 15".
I see the firewall has 3 different settings:
Allow all incoming connections.
Allow only essential services.
Set access for specific services and applications.
Which setting would be most secure but still functional with Transmission?
I just got my MX Revolution today from Newegg and I'm working on configuring it (especially the scroll, which I can't seem to nail). I've been using Logitech Control Center, which seems to do everything I need...
This is what I have so far:
L click: left click
R click: right cilck
scroll: smooth scroll in firefox/safari, alternating scroll globally
scroll click: middle click in firefox, switches scroll modes globally

I have a Bluetooth mouse that I use with my MacBook Pro.
In Tiger & Leopard, I was able to set my Mac so that it disabled the trackpad from use when the Bluetooth mouse was connected. I just noticed that that setting has been undone and I can't seem to find the preference to set that setting.
Anything? Thoughts? This obviously isn't a crisis, I'm just curious if they've moved the preference someplace else... or something.
I've got a G5 DP with the infamous white noise problem coming through my speakers that was only fixed after downloading the chud tools and disabling the NAP settings - does anyone know if I'll have the same issues if I install Leopard? Want to upgrade but don't want to waste my money if the noise comes back and I can't get it to work. Also, I'm using an m-audio firewire 410 that doesn't have drivers yet; has anyone used the Tiger drivers with success on Leopard?

How do you delete individual items from Trash without emptying entire Trash? If I highlight one item in Trash, the only option is the Empty button. I'm afraid it will empty the whole thing. I don't want to do that.

I have a G5 Duel 2GHz Power PC, Recently I was losing the time, date and wireless settings so I assumed as my machine is now 4 years old the PRAM battery was up for renewal.This has now been replaced but I'm still losing my settings, not all the time but randomly, sometimes I lose my wireless key sometimes I lose time and date sometimes both, this can happen daily.
I have removed the (New) Battery and checked the voltage and it reads 3.6 Volts, I haven't checked this under load though, so presuming that the battery is OK, what else could cause this.. a failing System Board?
My 24" iMac (2.4 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo, running OSX 10.6.1) crashed during a normal shutdown sequence and had to be closed down by holding in the power button. This resulted in three zero kB alias files with random names such as "." in the trash.
I cannot empty these files from the trash by any normal means and the trash icon permanently shows full. The files can be selected but cannot be dragged to the desktop or renamed. Other files put in the trash can be deleted normally.
My 09 Mac Pro trash won't make the normal trash sound when emptying the trash in SL. Does anyone know if this is for all SL users or how I can turn it back on? I like hearing the sound and don't like the fact that I have a glitch if this is one.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have a little issue with the trash, when ever I trash something it automatically empty the trash but before it was empty completely it display a massage.
I know normally if you want to trash something, all you have to do is press "⌘ + Delete". To empty trash you press "Option + ⌘ + Delete" But now when I press "⌘ + Delete" it display the massage as you see below.
How do I fixed it or have it go back to normal state?

this seems like a really simple thing i want to do but i cant seem to figure it out. All i'm trying to do is put a shortcut of the trash can onto the desktop. I have my dock hidden and it can be a pain to try and make it appear to delete something. i searched spotlight for trash and there are no hits. i try to drag the trashcan from the dock and nothing happens. There has to be a solution???

Despite having several files in the trash, its icon never changes (always shows an empty trash) and the "Empty Trash" option is dimmed (that is, cannot be used). OnyX ws the only solution but it's temporary. What's the fix I should apply to Mac OS X? Also, why is it that every time I want to move a file to trash I must enter my password? It's annoying to say the least.Please help me as I don't want to go through the royal pains of installing everything again, Windows-style. I think Mac OS X should be better than that.
